What Is a Beard Transplant?

The Toronto Cosmetic Surgery Institute and Nova Medical Hair Transplant paired up to offer you the latest and most advanced hair transplant solutions in Toronto.

A beard transplant is a cosmetic procedure that takes healthy hair follicles from a donor area, typically the back or sides of your scalp, and transplants them into areas of your face where facial hair is thin, patchy, or completely absent. The transplanted follicles adapt to their new location and produce real, growing facial hair that you can trim, shave, and style just like natural beard growth.

At the Toronto Cosmetic Surgery Institute, our surgeons perform beard transplants using Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), a minimally invasive technique that extracts individual follicles without leaving a visible linear scar. Each graft is placed at a precise angle and depth to mimic the natural direction of beard hair growth, creating results that are virtually indistinguishable from a naturally full beard.

Whether you're dealing with genetics that left you with sparse cheek coverage, patchy areas from scarring, or you simply want to add more density to your jawline, a beard transplant offers a permanent solution that temporary fixes like minoxidil or microblading cannot match.

Are You a Good Candidate for a Beard Transplant?

Most healthy men are good candidates for facial hair transplantation. The key requirement is having a sufficient donor area, typically the back and sides of the scalp, with enough healthy follicles to harvest without compromising the donor site's appearance.

A beard transplant may be right for you if:
- You have genetically thin or patchy facial hair that doesn't fill in on its own
- You've tried minoxidil or other topical treatments without satisfactory results
- You have scarring on your face from acne, burns, or previous surgery that prevents hair growth
- You're a transgender man seeking masculine facial hair as part of your transition
- You want to reshape or redefine your beard line, sideburns, or moustache
- You have alopecia barbae (a form of alopecia that specifically affects the beard area)

During your consultation, our surgical team will assess your donor area density, discuss your goals, and determine the number of grafts needed to achieve the coverage you're looking for. We'll also review your medical history to ensure you're a safe candidate for the procedure.

Realistic Expectations

Liposuction is best used to address stubborn pockets of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise, and not for overall weight loss.

Hair Transplant Before and After Photos

How a Beard Transplant Works

The entire procedure is performed under local anesthesia as an outpatient surgery. You're awake and comfortable throughout. Depending on the number of grafts, a beard transplant typically takes between 3 and 8 hours.

Consultation & Beard Design

You'll meet with your surgeon to discuss your goals, review reference photos, and map out the exact shape and density of your new beard. This blueprint is drawn directly onto your face before the procedure begins, so you can approve the design before a single graft is placed.

Donor Follicle Extraction

Using the FUE method, individual hair follicles are carefully extracted from the donor area on the back of your scalp. The extraction is done selectively, taking roughly every third or fourth follicle, so the donor site retains its natural density and appearance.

Graft Preparation

The harvested follicles are sorted, cleaned, and prepared for implantation. Single-hair follicular units are typically preferred for beard transplants to replicate the natural growth pattern of facial hair.

Implantation

Each graft is individually placed into tiny recipient sites created in the beard area. The surgeon controls the angle, direction, and depth of every follicle to ensure natural growth patterns. This is the most critical phase, and where surgical artistry makes the difference between a good beard transplant and a great one.

Recovery & Growth

You'll go home the same day with detailed aftercare instructions. Small scabs form around each graft site and shed within 7-10 days. The transplanted hairs typically fall out at around 2-3 weeks (this is normal), then new permanent beard growth begins at 3-4 months. Full density is visible at 9-12 months.

Beard Transplant Recovery

First 48 Hours
Some mild swelling and redness around the transplant area is expected. This is normal and resolves quickly. We'll provide you with prescription pain medication, though many patients find over-the-counter options are sufficient. Avoid touching or rubbing the transplant area.
Tiny scabs will form around each graft site. Do not pick at them: let them shed naturally. You'll be given specific instructions on how to gently wash the area. Most patients feel comfortable returning to work and social activities by day 5.
Weeks 2 to 3
The transplanted hairs will shed. This can be alarming if you're not expecting it, but it's a completely normal part of the growth cycle. The follicles are alive and healthy beneath the surface — they're just resetting before they begin producing new, permanent growth.
Months 3 to 12
New beard hair starts to emerge around the three-month mark and continues to thicken and fill in over the following months. By month nine to twelve, you'll see the full result; a thicker, fuller beard that you can groom however you like.

Frequently Ask Questions

How Many Grafts Does a Beard Transplant Require?
The number of grafts you'll need depends on your current facial hair density and the coverage you're aiming for. Here are typical ranges to give you a general idea:

Patchy Areas / Spot Treatment
For men who have a beard but want to fill in specific sparse patches (typically on the cheeks or under the chin) you may need between 300 and 800 grafts.

Goatee or Moustache
Creating or enhancing a goatee typically requires 600 to 1,500 grafts, depending on how much existing facial hair you have and the density you want.

Full Beard
For a complete beard (covering cheeks, jawline, chin, and moustache from minimal existing growth) expect to need 2,000 to 3,500 grafts or more. Some patients with very little natural facial hair may need a second session to achieve maximum density.

Your consultation will include a detailed assessment and graft estimate based on your specific anatomy and goals. Every plan is custom; we don't do one-size-fits-all.
How much does a beard transplant cost in Toronto?
The cost of a beard transplant at SixSurgery depends on the number of grafts needed and the complexity of the procedure. Because every patient is different, we provide personalized cost estimates during your consultation. We also offer financing options to make the procedure accessible.
Is a beard transplant permanent?
Yes. The donor follicles are harvested from areas of the scalp that are genetically resistant to hair loss. Once transplanted and established in the beard area, they produce permanent growth that continues for life. You can shave, trim, and style your transplanted beard hair just like natural facial hair.
Does a beard transplant hurt?
The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, so you won't feel pain during the surgery itself. Some patients experience mild discomfort during the initial numbing injections. Post-procedure soreness is minimal and easily managed with standard pain relief.
Will my beard transplant look natural?
When performed by an experienced surgeon, absolutely. The key to a natural result is correct graft placement: each follicle must be implanted at the right angle, depth, and direction to match how natural beard hair grows. This is why surgical skill matters so much in facial hair transplantation. Our surgeons have extensive experience in precise follicle placement that produces seamless, natural-looking results.
Can I design the shape of my beard?
Yes. that's one of the biggest advantages of a beard transplant. During your consultation, you'll work with your surgeon to design the exact beard style you want. Whether you're looking for a full beard, a sharp jawline fade, a defined goatee, or filling in patchy spots, the procedure is completely customizable to your face and preferences.
What about beard transplants for scar coverage?
Beard transplants are an effective option for covering facial scars from acne, burns, surgery, or injury. As long as the scar tissue has an adequate blood supply (which most scars do), transplanted follicles can establish growth and effectively camouflage the scarred area.
Can I combine a beard transplant with a hair transplant?
In many cases, yes. If you're also experiencing scalp hair loss, both procedures can be discussed during your consultation. Your surgeon will assess the total donor capacity to determine what's achievable in a single session or whether staging is recommended.
How long until I can shave after a beard transplant?
We typically recommend waiting at least 10 to 14 days before shaving or trimming the transplanted area. By three weeks, the grafts are fully secure and you can resume your normal grooming routine. Your surgeon will give you specific guidance during your post-operative follow-up.
